I have all three hidden appearances on my mage, the frost one first, then the arcane, then fire finally dropped after the update for drops to come easier. The reaction in the doorway in the mage hall took the longest to get, though. Happy other mages won't have to go through the same bug I had with it never popping up until a month later.

UH can already top single bosses like Varimathras and Garothi but let's ignore tier set bonuses of Hunter(Except Survival)\/Boomkin...The irony...

so I think I'm misunderstanding the unholy 4pc change, is it now just vanilla windfury?

It'll either only proc 2 time in a row max, or have high diminishing return.

The first proc have 16% chance, then the second one is 16%*16% chance, then the third one is 16%*16%*16%, and so on.

Or Sub rogue 4pc etc. But that's another issue. They work just fine but are so crap nobody want them...

But really I hope that this really move up the proc average closer to what's expected because it was a joke otherwise.

Kudos to them for trying to fix the bug (bonus doesn\u2019t proc off Sudden Doom), but I don\u2019t think they really did the math on it because this is a straight up nerf by moving the chance down to 16% with the change. All it does is open up the already RNG reliant spec to more RNG just to break even with where it was.

nah, the average unholy just did not have the time and chances to change darkest crusade or plaguebearer traits for the deathcoil trait. it's a good tier bonus.

I did Arcane questline to get the hidden appearance, after they buffed them (even got 13 within a week), but to this day, no Arms at all, specially on US realms. What the hell Blizz? I didn't see many mages whining on the forums, but Arms has been left at the bench for most of the time, EU has had it spawn more than 5 times in the year but US got it like what, 2-3 times? It's been more than 120 days right now, pretty sure, as a lot of people are tracking that one last hidden appearance so they got all 36.

You need to check the questgiver every day for the text option. I was in the same situation thinking a quest mark would just pop up but it never did. Then after weeks of waiting, i talked to him even though there was no indicator and behold, the dialog option to start the quest.

I was able to obtain mine back in 7.1\r\rFor alot that not had ak 6 before the change to automatic AK (so those that dinged 110 after 7.3 or shortly before it) the step "reach ak 6" never completed so the next step wich was the chance of the sheep to spawn in your order hall was never able to trigger.

They should do something about Guardian Druid tier set bonus...I cannot believe they've put that as a tier set bonus...not one Guardian that raids seriously would ever go for it because it's utter trash...I guess it was intended that Guardians would just skip tier pieces and go for highest ilvl with bis stats...whoever came up with that tier set bonus should be fired IMO as it shows total lack of knowledge of the class\/spec...

I think the Unholy tier is pretty pathetic, if the fight went on long enough it was possible to activate 2 sometimes even three Armies of the Dead with tier 20. But then I just see it as Blizzard scaling down tier bonuses in preparation of doing away with them next expansion.

Gotta love the posters on these sites. Anytime a set bonus is adjusted or tweaked they come on here and cry "But what about X spec not working the way I want it to. Blizz is obviously lazy\/doesn't care anymore." It's like clockwork.

And if you've read my post, I said I'm one of those who've been checking the npc EVERY SINGLE DAY for ~120 days now, without a single spawn on him, and I mean US servers, not EU, as on wowhead's page, the most recent ones were on EU (some people even forget to point which region they are, just the realms). \rThe mage's one I said 'whinning' because I got it on the same week I had gotten 13 of 36 in a row, even the ret pally one I got in the same day. That 'bug' they're talking must have been a very recent one as I got mine late October to November (got all printed too), and Blizz 'fixes' that, and an appearance that is months away from spawing at all, they won't. Just like the other war one (fury), instead of making nithogg spawn single-handedly, no, they make it a fixed spawn (of which is right), but make all else wait a bit longer.
